Józsi M1, Reuter S2, Nozal P3, López-Trascasa M4, Sánchez-Corral P5, Prohászka Z6, Uzonyi B7.
Immunology letters.Immunol Lett.2014 Aug;160(2):163-71. doi: 10.1016/j.imlet.2014.01.014. Epub 2014 Feb 1.
The alternative pathway of complement is implicated in the pathogenesis of several renal diseases, such as atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome, dense deposit disease and other forms of C3 glomerulopathy. The underlying complement defects include genetic and/or acquired factors, the latter in the form

Autoantibody stabilization of the classical pathway C3 convertase leading to C3 deficiency and Neisserial sepsis: C4 nephritic factor revisited.

Miller EC1, Chase NM, Densen P, Hintermeyer MK, Casper JT, Atkinson JP.
Clinical immunology (Orlando, Fla.).Clin Immunol.2012 Dec;145(3):241-50. doi: 10.1016/j.clim.2012.09.007. Epub 2012 Sep 28.
C3 deficiency is a rare disorder that leads to recurrent pyogenic infections. Here we describe a previously healthy 18 y/o Caucasian male with severe meningococcal disease. Total hemolytic activity was zero secondary to an undetectable C3. The C3 gene was normal by sequencing. Mixing the patient's s

… C4 nephritic factor (C4NeF) is an auto-antibody which stabilizes the classical path-way C3 convertase, C4b2a complex. … C4NeF was first reported in a patient with acute post-infectious glomerulonephritis and then in some patients suffering from systemic lupus erythematosus and chronic glomerulonephritis. … However the significance of C4NeF in the pathogenesis of nephritis remains unknown. …

… The sera from fifty patients with hypocomplementaemic membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) that have C3 splitting activity were examined for the presence of C3 nephritic factor (C3NeF). … A serum sample from C3NeF positive case showed reduced levels of early components (Clq and C4) and C5. … In other three patients of C3NeF positive case, early components (Clq and C4) were normal, althogh C5 were low levels. …
